Court slabs and site prep for Kearns yards

From Kearns, about 10 miles southwest of downtown Salt Lake City, we hear about yards of every shape: wide flat lawns, sloping lots and tight strips between the house and the property line. Most can fit a pickleball court, a sport court or a basketball slab with the right layout and prep.

A pickleball court measures 20 by 44 feet, yet backyard pads around the valley commonly run about 30 by 60 feet so players have room behind the baselines and along the sides. Summer evening sun drops low in the west across the Wasatch Front, so backyard courts are usually turned with the long axis roughly north to south.

Pace off where the court would go in your Kearns yard, then pass the numbers along by form or phone. A callback follows with questions about slope and access, and the on-site estimate is free.

Around Kearns

Around Sunset Downs, Hoffman Heights and Utah Olympic Oval and throughout Kearns, backyards range from flat lawns to steep lots, and a good court works with either one. We plan the pad, the slope and the runout around the yard you actually have.

Where old lake clay lies under a yard, it holds water and shifts with it, so court pads there get soft spots dug out and a compacted gravel base before the slab.

Beyond Kearns, backyard pickleball and sport courts are also planned and built for yards in West Valley City, Taylorsville, West Jordan and Murray, slopes and all.

Questions

Kearns FAQs

How much yard does a pickleball court need in Kearns?

The court is 20 by 44 feet, and about 30 by 60 feet of slab gives comfortable room to play. Smaller pads can still work for casual games, and sloped yards can often gain flat space with a retaining wall.

Do I need a permit for a backyard court in Kearns?

It depends on the city and the project. Large slabs, retaining walls over about 4 feet and grading that changes drainage can bring permits, and HOAs often want to see a court plan. Digging waits until 811 has flagged the buried lines.

When can a court in Kearns be poured?

Most courts are poured between spring and fall, when the ground isn't frozen. After the pour, the slab cures for several weeks before the acrylic surface goes on, so an early-season start means more of the year on the court.

Which way should a Kearns court face?

Roughly north to south along its long axis, so the rising and setting sun stays out of players' eyes. Yard shape sometimes forces a compromise, and a few degrees off is fine.

How do I get a court estimate in Kearns?

Phone (801) 751-6099 or use the form with your yard's rough size, the slope and the games you want. The contractor will reach out to talk it over and arrange a yard visit, and there's no charge for the estimate.

Which towns do you build courts in?

Salt Lake City plus Millcreek, Holladay, Cottonwood Heights, Sandy, Draper, South Jordan, Riverton, Herriman and Bluffdale on the Salt Lake County side. In Utah County that means Lehi, Highland, Alpine, American Fork and Orem, and in the Tooele Valley, Stansbury Park and Erda.
